You might have a point if IBM didn't wasn't sending people from their company routinely to the death camps to maintain the equipment, etc. Only an idiot would think that these people didn't realize what was going on. This wasn't just IBM shipping products to the Nazis and then having no further ties.
Would you consider voting for Palin if she ended up on another national ticket? If you answer "No" to both of those questions, then please explain why you would have the slightest interest in her emails?
Yeah, how dare someone actually want access to public records of someone running for a national office (which she was at the time of the FOIA request 3 fucking years ago). Now, it's all just some librul conspiracy!!!
As for comparing it to Obama's birth certificate, the point is how absurd both of these issues are. The vast right wing conspiracy was harassing Obama for the birth certificate. Left wingers are doing the same with Palin's emails (or anything else they can come up with).
How was it absurd? One is a matter of public record relating to a politicians elected position. The other one had absolutely jack and shit to do with an election. That you think they are even remotely comparable shows that in fact you are the one with the major bias.
They then have to deal with someone else's IT department.
Yes, and those people at Amazon, Google, Rackspace, etc are usually much more amenable to listening to the people they are providing service and are much more of a pleasure to work with then the typical internal IT monkey.
Umm, how are the official emails she used to conduct business as the governor not important? And how is that even remotely comparable to someone's birth certificate?
She was in office when this FOIA request was made. It's just that the stated purposefully delayed for enough years that it wasn't until after she left office that they released anything.
But any rational person realizes that George H.W. Bush was quite correct in calling Reagan's version of economics out as "voodoo economics".

So according to you the German government forced IBM to create those subsidiary companies and then to do business with them? Otherwise, how did they not have a choice?
If it was just stolen, can't the owner take a backup copy and immediately convert them all to real cash?
How exactly is he going to immediately convert it all to cash when there aren't enough askers for that much bitcoin? Despite claims of how much all this bitcoin is worth if no one is going to pay the exchange it is nothing but worthless bits.
However, I might think twice before hiring someone for a professional position if their Facebook page is full of pictures of them doing a handstand on a keg while drinking from the tap.
Why? If they have no history of showing up to work drunk and are competent in their profession why is it any of your business what they do when they aren't working?
Let me get this straight. You don't find anything weird with a book that the reviewer admits is poorly written, poorly edited and is apparently filled with "plenty of errata" yet they give it an 8/10? Any normal person would find something odd about that.

Righthaven Loses

Well, kinda. Whatever Righthaven's ownership structure is, they are a separate entity, and the assets of the parent company do not belong to the subsidiary. So the judge's standing is completely correct that Righthaven does not own the copyright they are seeking to enforce.
True, they are a separate entity. My point was only to counter the person thinking that Stephens Media was selling handing their copyrights off to someone else when Stephens Media would have just been transferring their copyrights to a shell company that they control. And yes, due to the fact that Righthaven itself is not the copyright holder they have no standing at all to sue.

BUSH IS EVIL!
True. Everyone knows that shaved is much better.
But why would you assume every computer was going to be hooked up to the Kinect?
The blog is run by the submitter. He was using the article as a way to drive hits to his site.
Yes, but soricon gets no ad clicks if you go to the direct link rather than to his own site.
Your post makes no sense. Why would he have to upgrade all those machines for himself to use the SDK?

Not everything is about money.
Sure, if you ignore the fact that he is specifically doing this to get money. In this case, he believes he can get the dead or alive reward.
And what's sad is that after they spent all that time making an even shittier version of the website they still couldn't implement Unicode support.
Was that supposed to mean that each of the thousand CAPTCHAs adds a dollar in cost to spammers?
Yes.
No, it is a viral infection. The virus responsible is called the picornavirus.
He's referring to all the shill reviews of Drupal books from Packt Publishing.
How many Bitcoins can I get for my Flooz?
That depends. How many beenz can I get for that flooz?
That's why you should pay them in Beenz. No one is going to want the steal them.
Wire transfer?

Gotta love how that worked out for them.
No one excused these people of being clever.
